he knew his no vote was inconsequential ahead of time, he, and I'm just speculating here, thought that he would be protected from the fallout of this betrayal, well, as the plaque on Pres. Harry S. Truman's desk said, "The Buck Stops Here".
AFAIC, he gave the green light for this betrayal of Dems who fought like hell and won this last Tuesday's elections by wide margins to give the Democratic Party the momentum to take back the House and possibly the Senate in 2026, but after this crap, IMHO, this is going to depress Democrat voters because why should they come out to vote when time after time after time after time after time, our Rep. and Sen. cave?
I'll still religiously vote for my Dem Rep and Sen., but how many other Dems are now going to say "fuck it, why vote when it doesn't matter because the Dems are going to cave every fucking time?
Ok, that's my tipsy rant for the night.
Good night.
